From the Paper:

"Since listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in 2003, JB has performed strongly, with a 12% increase in ROE between 2004 and 2008. Return on owner's equity for JB has outperformed the market achieving better results than both industry peers and alternative investments. This strong performance has been reflected in gains in the company's share price over the study period. The growth in company's ROE has been driven by significant gains in sales and profit (bolstered by a focus on rapid store growth) as well as increasing cost and asset efficiencies over the period."
